Presentation
The puppet theatre company “TitiriSol” was born in Havana, Cuba in 1969. Since then, the company has a variety of presentations, workshops and conferences that promote puppet theatre, which allows a link between universal literature and different socio-cultural contexts where stories and images develop. In addition, the interesting world of puppets is presented in a healthy and entertaining way, as well as the relationship they have with other artistic disciplines, enriching the cultural activities of which children, youth and adults are a part. To date, the company has received numerous national and international recognitions, which has led to its participation in different festivals such as the International Puppet Festival “Rosete Aranda”, the National Puppet Festival “Rosario Castellanos”, as well as the 6th FESTIVAL MARIONETTES, of the French Overseas Department of Martinique, held in 2017.
